district in this city. 1t has broken out in the.
Labor organization. 1t has extended to the Cen

its birth short year ago. 1t has played havoc
with that unity in Labor politics which was so
formidable last fall. 1t must inevitably sniit
the Labor vote in way which prevent any of
the predictions based upon the result of last No
vember's election. 1t will surely drive back to
the old camp thousands of voters who broke
loose year ago, but who are disgnsted with the
present uproar. and it is in every way bad bust
ness for the Labor parties
And thus it is that Labor politics stand in
New York to-day in view of the election which
will take place two months hence and which

1883. The worst feature in the whole case is the
charges of trading with old party leaders and
bargain and sale, which are hung against each
other by the three factions"

will be required of the Benson surveyors for the
present. Though the decision of Justice Field
in sustaining the demurrers effectually prevents
trial on these indictments, the bills have not
been dismissed, nor will they be until United

to the attention of a new Grand Jury. To con-
slider these cases the Grand Jury will have to be
summoned to represent the old district of Cali
fornia, which ceased to exist last year, and the
attorneys for the surveyors think that this can
not legally be done at present.

STOCK YARDS.

Dallas should have stock yards. Dali
las is the railroad center of Texas, the
commercial metropolis of the South
west. most convenient point between
the cattle-growing country OF inc
southwest and the eastern markets,
and Dallas has the men and the money
to make such n move n decided sue
cess if the proper men in Dallas will
only take hold of the matter
Dallas needs stock.yards and would
be largely benefited by them. The
stock. growers need stock-yards at
Dallas and would be greatly conven-
fenced thereby. The enterprise would
nav all round; and would result IN
the building up here of live stock
market which would be second in int
portance only to Kansas City. Stock
wards here, creating market Tor i've
stock and general feeding and fat
tening station, would also create a
tirst-class market for the corn and hay
product of the surrounding counties.
With the transfer here of millions OF
dollars worth of live stock each year
and the millions of bushels of feed
necessary to feed and fatten them, the
banks would be immensely benefited,
and business of every kind in Dallas
promoted as by no other single enter
prise.

the HERALD wishes A HAPPY CHRIST
MAS.
Wherever civilized man may be
found this blessed Christmas season
will be obsei we'd with rest from busi-
mess care, merrlment, expressions OF
good will, acts of friendly kindness
aud deeds of charity. Other holidays
ave bounded in their observance by
states and nations, but Christmas Is
for all the world. 1t symbolizes
the cheerful heart, the open
hand and the devout goodness
of God, which are inseparable from
the true Christian, and which he en-
hibts in his daily walk through the
year. Christmas is calculated
to bring out these virtues
and this is Christianity. They
are no more obligatory on this
day than any other, but the observance
of them at this particular season is the
homage which all men pay TO the facl
Of their binding obligation.
Those who are prosperous and hap
py should contribute something to the
enjoyment Of others who have not the
pleasures of Christmas holiday, o.
possibly even the comforts of life
Let them according to their means re-
member their friends and remember
the poor. Then will they have whs
we sincerely wish them-.A Merry
Christmas.

At the coronation of King Kalakaua

emblems Of royalty ever worn BY king
orAkaiser. As may be supposed, ii Is,
carefully kept at the palace. It is Il
semi circular cloak about four feetsin
length. covering an area of Is square
feet when spread out, and it is made Of
the small golden-hued feathers Of tho
90. These feathers, each about tho
size of ones little finger nail. are
fastened to a fine network of fibre.
made from the bark of the olona, over4s
laying each other. There are at least
5000 of these feathers used in the cloak
there are but two taken from each bird.
which have to be shared in the dense
woods, the feathers plucked and the
birds released; it was crime to kill
them. The birds are by no means
abundant, necessarily the value of tho
cloak is very great, and the keeping Of
it an endless task. This mantle u
worn only by the reigning sovereign.
There are shorter capes and cloaks
worn by Allies or chiefs, their length
being regulated by the rank Of fht
wearer.
